Hard Work Seems to Not Matter In the End

[70sAesthetics]

From my understanding, anything above genetic limit requires juice to maintain. Anything below genetic limit can be maintained with or without juice assuming diet, sleep, nutrition are in check.

I have spent 3 yrs lifting like its my job. I feel im 70% at my genetic limit. I went from 13-18 inch arms natty. I feel I can get them to max 19-20 natty depending on BF levels.

My friend started cycling the second he started lifting. Although his diet, training, sleep are all in check as well.

Both of our goals is to be at our genetic limits and try and maintain that.

The rate he is going, he will hit his genetic limit, in a total of 1.5 yrs total lifting time, all with assistance. With 3 cycles completed.

I will hit my genetic limit in 4 yrs total lifting time, with 3 of those years natty and 1 cycle in the 4th year.


Besides the fact hes done more cycles in the end. Please explain to me why I am better off? Since both our goals is simply maintaining genetic limit and not competing. I feel like all my hard does not matter in this circumstance.

im a bit curious to how u figured out what ur genetic limit is ahead of time as well as how long its gonna take both of u to get there???

Hormones in your body control sleep, body temp, appetite, growth, mood, memory, sex drive, reproduction, immunity and more. Steroids WILL affect these functions in your body. Simply because your buddy is having success now doesn't mean he wont have significant problems later in life. Have you seen his blood work? Is he truly "healthy". Is his lipid profile normal? Are there any abnormalities in his red or white blood cells? Don't just assume that because he looks healthy, he is healthy. He could experience a number of problems later in life.

Also, just because someone else does something isn't reason enough for you to do it.

[gixxerboy1]

it takes years to hit a genetic limit on gear or not. It takes years for your body just to adjust to holding the extra weight as normal.
I thought i knew my limit many times

I agree with this. Although lets assume he only needed 3 cycles to hit that goal. The sides wouldnt be so bad. Also im willing to bed in twenty years, TRT will be a fad, for guys that never even did juice.

Dont sass me boy. Im aware of this. Im just guesstimating here, its not really the point anyway it just helps me explain the circumstance.

Great way to make a first impression. Calling a very knowledgeable well respected member boy.

How can you say your hard work isn't paying off when you admit you added 5 inches to your arms? And how do you know yours, or another persons genetic limit so far in advance?

[MuscleInk]

Damn. He could have called me "boy". I'd take that over "old man"! Lol

Hmmm....I practice medicine. Thanks for enlightening me with your wisdom. Lol

[Lunk1]

Sounds like a good name change for 405 "Boy" lol!

I think he'd like being referred to as boy. Maybe man-boy or bad-boy?

[Warrior1700]

Or Mama's "Boy"...Now if he called qixxer"boy"1 that would be understandable... as that IS part of his name after all. Lol

Im laughing my ass off. But srs halp. If he hits his goal in 3 cycles and half the lifting time. Have i dun goofed by wasting 4 years of life for a process that only took him 2. Does the difference of 1 cycle ever used to 3 cycles ever used really provide that much negative effects.

I have not read this whole thread but I read the original. I would say (believe it or not) that because you have learned to do things the "right" way and he has gained from juice...there will come a time when he hits the wall and your able to surpass him. When? I don't know...but it's very likely!

Not to mention..his gains will be harder for him to hang on to as it's the juice that supports them not his diet and routine!Trust me...there are several of US that had great gains during our first cycle or 3 and lost everything because we had no diet discipline!

But that is more of an issue of you f*cked up your diet. My buddy has done research and knows the exact macro count of his diet, like I do. Im looking at this assuming u have perfect diet, sleep, training

all it takes is 1 cycle to fvck you up. So yes there is more risk at 3 then 1 cycle

ill refrain from comment on the "boy" remark. however the apparent "point" of this thread is u want to whine because ur buddy is gonna possibly get "big" faster than u cuz hes cycling and ur not and u want us to tell u its okay..

id also like to note either u or him hitting ur "genetic limit" in 4 or 1.5 yrs respectively is pretty optimistic IMO..

Arent these chances extremely low??

Yea ur right mr violin player that is kind of why im asking. I jjust wanna feels like my efforts are not in vain. u feels my feel?

[Squats33]

All I gotta say is, take a look at the rock. Tons of changes here lately and I'm sure he's not at his "limit" and he's 40!!!

[Squats33]

So stop asking questions, either take AAS or don't, but either way.... JUST BRING IT... In the gym

[John Andrew]

Wow! Here I am and still no idea about what is my genetic limit. All I know is if I train hard 3 hours a day afet 32 years I am stronger than I ever was!

There are no limits except those you place in your mind! I may be older than I ever was but I am also better, wiser, and while I do not have the same speed and flexibility, my endurance and ability to withstand pain is exceptional!

I will be a whole lot older before i reach any limits! John

[>Good Luck<]

The phrase should "just one cycle" should be banned. If you think u will just do one cycle, you have to start your research all over again. If you think your buddy will do 3 cycles and reach genetic potential and stop, you are wrong again.

Not trying to break your balls sir, just giving you a reality check for your own good. If you don't want to be a juiced out meathead, don't use juice ever. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO ONE CYCLE!

I want the juice. I just dont want dat dere no feels for woman when im off cycle. and that floppy cock at 30 u feels me?

[--->>405<<---]

i dont understand how u could feel ur efforts would be in vain if u were progressing?? u stated ur arms are 5" bigger than originally, if we are to assume this growth applies to the rest of ur body i dont see how u would make such a statement..

if u think ur efforts have been in vain maybe u should pull out an old pic from before u started lifting and take a look at it and then re-evaluate.

[Lunk1]

I'm 6 ft currently 235ish...Iv'e been 280..I'm nealy 40 and I have no FKN clue where my genetic limit is. Why? Because I have never gotten to a competition level nor will I.

I cant see how you have any idea where your linit is but..if you are pissed cause you worked harder longer and he is even with you. Dont blame it all on juice...I have an old friend who's whole family are genetic freaks. He can walk in the gym...BS with everyone for 20 min., walk out and gain 10lbs of lean muscle. Perhaps your friend has better genetics to grow in the first place...your not both equal.

This whole thread is pointless...hit the juice and see what heppens...don't know what else to tell ya!

[>Good Luck<]

Yea I know what your saying. Put it like this... If you spent a day in heaven, you wouldn't care to come back to earth. That's how juice is. Once you go there, natural just becomes... Different...


Your risks are the same from 1 cycle to 100 cycles. It's a risk you have to be willing to accept. The only guarantee in life is death and taxes... So are you ready to gamble with your hormones?

You need to put that attitude in check.You make crazy statement then you want a stright answer.Chill people are here to help not listen to the way you talk to your kids.

I dont feel they were in vain per se. Ive just started to realize that working out like a pro bodybuilder and not competing is a waste of life! Im in my 20s and not going clubbing and not having fun, so I can eat, sleep, train perfect is a waste. U feel me. Everyone assumes im roided anyway. I still want to get bigger. But Im not really prepared to do another 2 years the way I have been doing. I literally would never go out past 12pm, I missed out on ****ing so many girls buy passing up social events etc.

Obviously risks must increase though. I mean it must be better to only do 1 cycle in life than 10.

This is the price you pay for this type of healthy lifestyle. Its called dedication. If you don't like it then trade in your workout gloves for beer and Cheetos. Don't come here crying, we're not your mommy or daddy.

Good luck.

I agree with your post almost entirely. The guy who is on gear will always look better than the guy who is not, unless there is an extremely drastic difference in the way each of you eat.

[ANIMAL]

Someone just tell him he wasted 4 years of his life, that's really all he's looking for regardless of what anyone says in the thread.

I've been BB for over 6 years, and I'm still learning new things all the time. You can't trade away experience and gained knowledge because someone looks better then you by taking an enhancement. Sounds like you're just jealous of your friend and want some reassurance on not doing more cycles. Just when you think you have everything "in check" there are always ways to improve.

I'd say the improvements you made in 4 years is really good. Could you have made better improvements faster if you were on gear? Of course. You know that already. No idea how one can decide on hitting a genetic limit.

[Lunk1]

Your pics are amazing and I'm jelious as hell BUT...you say some of the dumbest shyt!

You cannot compare 2 ppl and say one will look better because of juice! The #1 factor in how you will look is genetics! Toss in diet, juice and routine and you can still only maximize your genetics, which are different than someone elses genetics.

If you aren't competing then why don't you go out to social events and enjoy life? You can still go out and hook up without binge drinking all night every night.

If you are that jealous of your friend, then why don't you hop on some gear and get bigger than him...? What else do you want us to tell you to do?

You also mentioned something about not being able to get it up (you said it in a dumb fcking way though)... If you know what you're doing and follow all protocols, this isn't something that you will probably have to worry about.

BTW-12pm is noon... I don't believe the above statement is true.
